Strength Based
The strength-based approach is a collaborative and positive counseling philosophy that shifts the focus from "what is wrong" to "what is working." Instead of viewing a client primarily through a lens of pathology or deficits, this framework identifies and leverages the client's inherent internal resources, past successes, and external support systems to promote healing and growth. It operates on the core belief that every individual possesses the resilience and capacity for change, using these existing strengths as the primary tools for achieving therapeutic goals.
